Direct democracy and nonpartisan rep govt, for a species-mature governance

Direct democracy is a legacy from its 400 years in the Roman Republic. It comes to us in the Declaration Of Independence. DD/rep-govt was ruled a republican form of govt intrinsic to the Constitution by our highest courts during corruption-fighting in the Reform Era, 1898-1918. It needs upgrading to help us fight today's corruption. DD/rep-govt political junkies wanted.

Russo's "Freedom to Fascism"

We'll talk some details. But, in the last analysis, Aaron Russo's 2006 film, "America: Freedom to Fascism" is a force of nature. It's the best documentary of the American poltical condition since the freedom march films of the 1960s. It rips through the secret society corruption culture's history, from 1913 on -- showing how both major political parties have engineered the police state that we've become, and how much worse they plan for the police state to be.

Aaron Russo's film is a deal-breaker. The deal -- the social compact between Americans and their secretly-fascist-since-1913 national government -- will be broken for most ethically normal Americans at the film's first viewing. The Russo-shepherded truths are self-evident. The corrections obviously needed are massive.

Russo has outed the constitutional criminals and class-war slavers of the US-national-govt / private-central-banks treasons. And he's done it in such a way as to present one of the first coherent-whole, high-impact pictures of their sneak-thief moves against Americans.

"America: Freedom to Fascism" is available in hi-Q DVD and pay-per-view. It's also available for free viewing online through lower-Q Google Video. In its "final cut", it runs 1 hour, 49 minutes, and some change. Go to Russo's site at --

Less than two minutes into the film, Russo has nailed together the events of the unconstitutional personal income tax (February 1913 fraudulent ratification of the insufficient 16th Amendment) and the unconstitutional Federal Reserve (December 1913 illegal delegation of one of Congress' essential legislative functions -- the coining and valuing of money).

For days after my first viewing of "Freedom to Fascism", my mind continually replayed Russo's quote from Paul Warburg, member of the Council on Foreign Relations and architect of the 1913 Federal Reserve Act. The quote is from Warburg's speech to the US Senate, 17 February 1950:"We shall have world government, whether or not we like it. The only question is whether world government will be achieved by conquest or consent".

The treasonous sneak-thieves of the American class-race elite and the European aristocracy are going to violently conquer the American nation? Hah! Not even with the 3-branch, Bush-Cheney fascist despotism in place. They just think that our side won't fight. Liberty or death, baby -- liberty or death.

Predator elitism's strategies for world government have been clear to them since the 1694 founding of the first central bank, the Bank of England. The authors of the Constitution knew and despised usurous central banks. They did everything they could to ensure that no such creature would ever hold power in the US.

Surprise. Since the 1913 founding of the Federal Reserve, the intentions of the Constitution's authors have been the laughing stock of the secret societies from Skull and Bones, to the CFR, to the Trilateral Commission, to the Bilderberg Group. Americans are way out on the edge of the near-future Owellian world government.

The central bankers knew, from their approx 220 years experience with the Bank of England and other European central banks prior to 1913, that American indebtedness would grow so large that the central bankers would eventually own the American nation.

Has that happened? We have (1) a national debt of $8.6 trillion, (2) the value of the dollar reduced to 4 cents in 1930 dollar-value by the continual inflation of the Fed's unsecured currency watering down dollar value by continual increases of the money supply, (3) the Bush-Cheney package of tax cuts for the multinational, stateless superrich helping to skyrocket the national debt, (4) the absurd, unconstitutional, felonious, and treasonous war in Iraq helping to skyrocket the national debt, while it provides war profiteering for the central bankers who finance it, with their phoney "interest" usury added on, (5) corporate taxation at an all-time low, and corporate tax evasion at an all-time high, helping to skyrocket the national debt, (6) a back-door, undebated, and undeliberated "Real ID Act" effective May 2008 -- attached as a rider to a May 2005 funding bill for the Iraq war by the "Conference Committee" (one of the most evil, stupid, anti-democracy, and unAmerican corruption machines in the national government) -- set to turn us into a very real police state for the benefit of money-power, and (7) the fascist leaders of the US, Canada, and Mexico -- unchecked by their civil societies -- about to use the media-hushed and secretive North American Union to reduce our three nations to the slave pool that the EU "Constitution" nearly achieved in Europe, summer 2005, and to replace the dollar with the central bankers' Canusmex currency, the Amero, in the process.

Do the central bankers own our nation? Russo thinks so. Most of his film is about the details of that ownership. And the more details he lays on, the more persuasive his sustained argument is.

Near film's end, he gives a 1991 quote from David Rockefeller, a member of predator elitism's Council on Foreign Relations. It trumpets the criminal CFR's secrecy, national ownership, and world-governing arrogance.

"We are grateful to the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time Magazine, and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years.

"It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years.

"But now the world is more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government.

"The supra national sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past centuries."

I'm doomed to fail the CFR sophistication test. I'm convinced that the arrogant elites want to take away our rights, freedoms, and liberties to cut their costs, increase their profits, make their power over us predictable and safe, and turn our children into corporate zombies with short and miserable lives. There is no group of them that I'm willing to trust with the time of day, let alone the governance decisions that will rule human life worldwide. I'm unfit for their world. They'll just have to kill me.

As such thoughts sink in and spread because of Russo's work, Americans will become more and more combative. We didn't come all this way to be gang-banged by a bunch of prissy superrich. The unconstitutional IRS wreckage of American lives like those of Joe Louis, Willie Nelson, and John Colaprete will beg vengeance. The unconstitutional wreckage of our rights, freedoms, and liberties under the 3-branch, Bush-Cheney fascist despotism will beg vengeance. There is a new wall-slamming, smash-mouth American politics coming.

Reverse Propaganda--Federal Reserve

In some ways, Russo's film has a propaganda feel to it. However, it's the opposite of classical propaganda, whose purpose is to trigger emotions that keep many people from examining the evidence. "Freedom to Fascism" is an invitation to examine the evidence. Russo knows that the more the evidence is examined, the more effective his themes will become.

Russo doesn't have to lay out the detailed evidence of Federal Reserve treasons. He knows that the Fed's critics have been doing that since before President Wilson signed the Federal Reserve Act into law.

Go for the evidence. The online starter kit is the long page at EPFN, "Federal Reserve--The Enemy of America". The offline starter kit is G. Edward Griffin's 2002 4th Edition of his book, The Creature from Jekyll Island: A Second Look at the Federal Reserve. (Griffin is one of the many expert commentators in Russo's film.)

Money from the "voluntary compliance" personal income tax -- a shocking revelation from Russo's interview of former IRS Commissioner Sheldon Cohen -- pays toward the national debt that the usury of the Federal Reserve stacks against the nation in daily windrows. Personal income tax monies give the appearance that the Federal-Reserve-incurred national debt can be paid off. It's an illusion.

The Federal Reserve usury is like a giant magnifier for the superrich. Its treasonous "fractional reserve" hocus pocus creates indebtedness with every dollar created and loaned. The lawful counterfeiting of unsecured "fiat" money out of thin air -- horrendously unconstitutional -- multiplies the money supply ad nauseum, automatically reducing the value of the dollar while it creates automatic inflation. Every dollar created out of thin air has its bogus and usurous "interest rate" attached (read, "usury fee"), drawing very real compound interest. The overall effect is one of superprofits to the superrich private bankers who own the Federal Reserve -- an ownership list that is as secret as is the amount of currency in the money supply -- and daily increases of power within the Federal Reserve to go right on magnifying its profits and power.

If the national debt were every paid off, the Federal Reserve would be forced to cease to exist.

The purpose of the personal income tax is to redistribute wealth upward and to control the civil society. The purpose of the Federal Reserve is to redistribute wealth upward and to control the civil society. The receivers of the redistributed wealth and the controllers of the society are the private owners of the Federal Reserve -- not the government.

Why this descent into fascism in the early 20th Century?

The timing of the secret societies' income tax and Federal Reserve machinations is no mystery. It was the Reform Era. We the sovereign people were demanding state-level citizen lawmaking to end the Gilded Age's Robber Baron corruptions.

By 1909, when Congress sent the proposed 16th Amendment to the states for ratification, citizens in seven states had already rammed direct democracy's citizen lawmaking down the elitist throats of their elitist-favoring constitutions. By March 1913 -- in the last days of Republican Taft's presidency -- when Republican Secretary of State Knox fraudulently certified the 16th Amendment as ratified, citizens in nine more states had gained citizen lawmaking. By December 1913, when Congress passed the treasonous Federal Reserve Act, one more state was on the citizen lawmaking list -- for a total of seventeen. And the well-organized nationwide citizen action groups made it appear that there would be many more.

We were on the brink of a new political dynamic in which the rabble would have the power to shut down all of the arrogant elites' carefully crafted corruption machines.

Courts across the country, including SCOTUS, had rejected the elites' arguments and ruled citizen lawmaking intrinsic to the Constitution.

We were scaring the hell out of the murderous elites. The only answer to their loss of corruption was more corruption.

Control of the rabble was priority one. In the states with citizen lawmaking, legislatures passed unconstitutional statutes allowing government officials and judges to delay, alter, and/or reject any citizen-proposed law offensive to money-power -- those are unconstitutionalities, felonies, and treasons still being perpetrated today. Elitist academe instituted the IQ testing system that would intimidate the non-elite majority eternally. Congress gave in to the international cabal of central bankers, saddling the population with an unconstitutional income tax -- so that public monies would pay for public enslavement. Income tax monies would pay for a US copy of the original usurous central bank, the Bank of England. With the Federal Reserve entrenched in a time-proven partnership between politicians and private bankers, the ultimate power of national control would be hidden in the hands of financial complexity beyond the rabble's ability to understand.

But then the bankers slowly altered the partnership, until, with the Eccles-written Banking Act of 1935, and its push-out of Treasury, the politicians were locked out of Federal Reserve operations. Marriner Eccles, the treasonous New-Dealer banker, head of the Federal Reserve from 1934 to 1948, had blind-sided the American nation.

Control by the bankers was so complete by 1935, that they could order political immunity from the SCOTUS decision in Schechter Poultry. That decision made key provisions of the New Deal's National Industrial Recovery Act unconstitutional. It did that by establishing the "nondelegation doctrine" in Constitutional law. The SCOTUS ruling said, "The Congress is not permitted to abdicate or to transfer to others the essential legislative functions" given to it in the Constitution.

The ruling in Schechter Poultry confirmed that Congress had not had the power to delegate its "essential legislative function" of coining and valuing money to the Federal Reserve. Critics of the Federal Reserve system thundered. Congress did nothing. And the treasons of the Federal Reserve continued.

Reverse Propaganda--16th Amendment

In the first two minutes of film, Russo has already said that US Secretary of State Philander Knox fraudulently certified the 16th Amendment's ratification. Because of this fraud, Russo says, the American people were led to believe that there was a legitimate, graduated tax on their labor and wages, when there was not.

Per several SCOTUS rulings since, the 16th Amendment granted no new taxation power. Constitutionally, we still have only indirect taxes, which are avoidable and must apply nationwide (excise tax is an example), and direct taxes, which are unavoidable and must be spread equally among the people ("apportioned" in tax jargon). The "graduated", unapportioned, direct income tax, Russo and many of his conmmentators argue, is as unconstitutional today as it was the day after the 16th Amendment's (fraudulent) ratification in 1913.

The fraudulent ratification of the 16th Amendment is a minimum-mention item. Go for the evidence.

The evidence shows that, instead of the approving 36 states required for and certified by Knox, there were only two -- two -- state ratifications that were constitutionally and legally valid (if the minor defects of spelling, capitalization, and punctualization are ignored).

As the evidence is examined, it becomes clear that Knox knew, or should have known, that he was certifying many invalid ratifications as genuine ratificaitons. The prima facie case for intentional fraud in Knox's certification is overwhelming. See especially, the synopsis of William Benson's research on the We the People web site; William Benson's own site, The Law That Never Was; and the expanded Benson research -- with defects chart -- on Political Resources

To point the viewer at a recent piece of 16th Amendment evidence, Russo quotes US District Judge James C. Fox in a 2003 ruling:"If you ... examined [the 16th Amendment] carefully, you would find that a sufficient number of states never ratified that amendment".

Judge Fox's quoted statement can be found on page 23 of the ruling's 26 pages. The ruling was in Sullivan v. U.S., 03-CV-39, US District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, Wilmington, 21 March 2003. (Most readers will find the entire ruling riveting. Colonel Sullivan had asked for the court's injunction against the US invasion of Iraq, arguing in depth that the president does not have the constitutional power to declare war, that only the Congress has that power, and that it was unconstitutional for Congress to delegate that power to the president. The hearing was held one day after the invasion formally began.)

There is nothing about Judge Fox's ruling that is out-of-context with the case that Russo is making against government and private corporation unconstitutionalities.

Judge Fox used the invalid ratification of the 16th Amendment as an example to argue that some parts of the Constitution are in there because of long-term usage, despite those parts' being properly unconstitutional. Judge Fox comments that no federal court will throw out the 16th Amendment, no matter what evidence of its improper ratification is brought, precisely because of its long-term use.

It is exactly that federal bench motiff -- that nothing be done about past unconstitutionalities -- that Russo rightfully attacks throughout his film.

Money-Power Shill-Trolls

The Russo film is challenged by anyone with an axe to grind for predator elitism or for the electing of some few Democrats so that the Democratic Party Corruption Machine is made innocent and changed forever.

David Cay Johnston of the NY Times provides a money-power shill-troll's review. Under a mile-high headline that says, "Facts Refute Filmaker's Assertions on Income Tax in America", Johnston asserts that "every court that has ever ruled on those issues has upheld the constitutionality of the income tax".

Whoa. Russo's commentators provide eight SCOTUS decisions that squash the constitutionality of the income tax. Those SCOTUS decisions ruled that the 16th Amendment gave no new power of taxation, and did not alter the restrictions on taxation given in the Constitution. Equals unconstitutional income tax every time.

In fact, as the constitutionality argument unpacks, Russo documents that nobody in the IRS, from top to bottom, is willing to go on-camera to discuss the issue. He gets a former IRS Commissioner (Sheldon Cohen) on camera only to have him assert that SCOTUS rulings are "inapplicable" to the tax code. And he shows that lower federal courts continually bar SCOTUS decisions from being brought as evidence.

For example, US District Judge Dawson (presiding over his railroaded conviction of author Irwin Schiff) is quoted as saying, "I will not allow the law in my court room". He rejects SCOTUS rulings as "irrelevant". And he tells the jury, "You must follow the law as I give it to you". Schiff was convicted on Dawson's enforcement of jury ignorance.

(There are so many Bill of Rights violations and 18 USC 241 violations in Judge Dawson's rulings, that he should already have been impeached and removed, criminally prosecuted and imprisoned. We impeached and removed three federal judges during the 1980s for unconstitutional rulings far less offensive to the Constitution and citizen rights than Judge Dawson's.)

Russo's material shows conclusively that no recent or lower court that has ever ruled on the constitutionality of the income tax is to be trusted. The juries that get the text of the law safely acquit the defendant. The judges are pro-elites mouthpieces who force convictions whenever they can. They are not about to rule against the cash cow that has financed the corruption machines since 1913.

And then NY Times towering giant Johnston writes:"... Mr. Russo says in the film that the 16th Amendment was never properly ratified and thus a tax on wages is unconstitutional. This claim has been made in various forms by thousands of tax protesters since 1913, and so far their batting average with the courts is .000."

Pretty twisted stuff. The issue bearing on guilty/not-guilty is not the use by thousands of 16th Amendment unconstitutionality. The issue bearing on guilty/not-guilty is whether there is a law requiring US citizens to file an income tax return. "Show me the law", defendant Harrell says in open court, and he will gladly pay his tax. "Show me the law" is the centerpiece throughout the film's IRS seqment. IRS officials and judges go dark. No lights on. Nobody home.

Russo wades through the recent juries' not-guilty verdicts for Whitey Harrell, Vernice Kuglin, Franklin Sanders (along with his twenty-three co-defendants) and former-IRS-agent-gone-truth-rogue Joe Banister. Against that back-drop of acquitals, he shows a recent video clip of former IRS Commissioner Charles Rossotti saying:"When the matter is put to the test, which means in terms of court and enforcement action, there is a hundred percent success rate in shooting down these arguments".

NYT Johnston's zero batting average for tax protestors and IRS Rossotti's hundred percent success rate in shooting down anti-income-tax arguments have a suspicious similarity. But neither has a factual basis.

David Cay Johnston's pseudo-facts crash and burn against his mile-high headline.

Winners and Losers

With this film, the IRS hierarchy, the Federal Reserve and their international central banking cabal, the Congress, and the predator elites' secret societies have already lost. However, given their nine-plus decades of arrogant, anti-Constitution winning, only a wall-slamming, smash-mouth American politics will convince them of their loss. Murderers do not stop murdering until they are stopped. And make no mistake, those people are psychopathic murderers anytime it means secret profits.

Ethically normal Americans, who will like the Russo film, will suddenly understand the culture of corruption in which Bush is immersed as he shouts that the Constitution is just a goddamned piece of paper. Insider Bush, Empire prince of the blood, secret society predator from frat-boy "Skull and Bones" to king of the world in the boss-of-bosses secret society, the "Bilderberg Group", would see the Constitution from the corruption culture's point of view. From that point of view, the Constitution is just a godddamned piece of paper.

The corruption culture's point of view is alien to ethically normal Americans -- until they see the Russo film. Then the corruption culture's point of view crashes home.

For US elected officials who pretend that there is anything about our national fascist despotism that is politics-as-usual until the IRS and Federal Reserve racketeering frauds are repealed, watch your six. Something's going to be gaining on you. There is a new smash-mouth American politics coming. (See especially the "Unity America" action plan in "Open Letter to Susan--Making Bush-Cheney Null & Void", 13 September 2006, on this blog.)

The specter of a Constitution-regaining, bloody revolution/civil-war is looming larger and closer. We will lose too much in a bloody revolution and not gain one iota more than we can have in a peaceful revolution. We have to expect losses, but the only way we win is with a peaceful revolution.

2 Comments:

DD Revival has something to say and it should be must reading for everyone who thinks that we have a government of, by, and for the people. The Aaron Russo film is a treasure that unfortunately few will see. The country is run by international bankers that have run our constitrution into the ground. We are at the point of no return folks. Either we are so weak and dilusioned that we can't imagine the U,S. being this corrupt, or we simply are afraid to get off our fat butts to see if what this site and so many others have been saying is true. For those that have ears to hear listen,things are not what they seem in the land of freedom and dreams...it has become our worst nightmare!

Criminal Federal Reserve

"Open Letter To Gary North: Subprime Crashes Into Criminal Monetery System" --Neitzke, DD Revival, 30 December 2007. Brief subprime and central-banking recap first, then the Fed's and central banking's legal landscape, then a semi-rigorous examination and collapsing of North's unfortunate paraphrasing of central banking's pooh-poohing of subprime illegalities (everybody knew about the frauds, nobaody said anything about the frauds, making all the frauds "common practices", which are not criminal -- a new theory of law and arrogance writ large), then some questions for North at the end.

Aaron Russo's 2006 film, "America: Freedom to Fascism". Free-per-view at Google video, the film is also available on DVD from the AFTF site. Russo connects the unconstitutional and felonious "Federal Reserve Act of 1913" with the fraudulent 1913 ratification of the 16th Amendment and its unconstitutional "personal income tax". From that criminal tandem, he shows how the superrich of the central banking cabal are the true masters of our domestic and foreign policy-making. If Russo's film does not crank up your sense of urgency against the coming North American Union and its dollar-dumping "Amero", then you are probably useless to the American nation.

"Russo's 'Freedom To Fascism'" --Neitzke, DD Revival, 01 November 2006. This is a wide-ranging review of Russo's film. (It is a more rounded-out version of what was published on the Populist Party site as "Outing The Constitutional Criminals".) It argues that Russo's film is an invitation to examine the evidence, not emotion-triggering propaganda pointing people away from the evidence. The essay also examines some major supporting evidence only mentioned in the film and takes to task the money-power shill-trolls who spew lies to criticize the film.

"The Fed--Jekyll Island Monster" --Neitzke, DD Revival, 07 July 2006. Abolishing the unconstitutional and felonious Federal Reserve and its unconstitutional national debt is necessary to our rule of law. Abolishing the Federal Reserve system may be the only way to avert the financial collapse of the US.

Parenti critically assesses the dominant dual-mode U.S. politics paradigm -- a public and seemingly honorable facade of fictions fronting for private, behind-the-scenes, criminal corruptions.

Universal Health Care

"Universal Health Care--Myth and Truth" --Neitzke, DD Revival, 27 October 2007. Universal medical care insurance is not univeral medical care. It's a sop to corproate predators and the superrich from criminal politicians who want the superrich to use the Diebold Electoral Frauds to put them in high office. It's anohter predator elitism carpet-bombing of the middle and lower classes. And it's not just one-dimensionsal greed. Universal health care insurance is another smoke screen, covering the unconstitutional and illegal suppression of EDTA chelation therapy, a biochemical cleaning of the vascular system that is a preventative and curative therapy for atherosclerosis and most of its spinoff diseases -- such as cancer, heart attack, stroke, adult diabetes and on into a very long list. The suppression of EDTA chelation therapy likely could not exist in a universal health care system. The suppression of EDTA chelation allows the medical industry to gouge hundreds of billions of dollars annually out of the society. But beyond the greed-driven money-grubbing, there's horrific human cost. We lose over one million Americans each year to early and unnecessary deaths due to atherosclerosis. Most are not faceless. They're mothers, fathers, siblings, extended family, and friends. We desperately need universal health care.

"VA Medical--Reckless Endangerment Whims" --Neitzke, DD Revival, 13 September 2007. There's something very wrong at the Muskogee (Oklahoma) VA Medical Center (now re-named the Jack C. Montgomery VAMC). I went to their emergency room on 04 September 2007 with double pneumonia. In combination with my core conditions of insulin-dependent diabetes, heart problems, chronic renal failure, and chronic Reiter's syndrome (an inflammation, autoimmune, and bone-deterioration disease that also adversely affects many of my organs), the pneuomonia was a clear threat to my 60-something life. Needing hospital monitoring for any number of possible, near-future emergencies, I was instead given a shot, some antibiotics, some cough syrup, and then pushed out the door. They saved a lot of money by pushing me out the door. As if the reckless endangerment of my life were not enough, I later discovered that at least three doctors played parts in falsifying and fabricating records of my visit. The doctored records blur the evidence of my needing hospitalization, make the doctors look good, and make any complaint of mine look bad. Clearly, those doctors are deeply accomplished fabricators. A written complaint to the VA's "Office of the Medical Inspector" circled through the VA zero-acccountability system, ending with the Muskogee facility manager calling 16 November and giving me a thorough nazi stroking. It's way past time that we absorb the extensive infrastructure of the VA medical system into a universal health care system, ending the VA medical zero-accountability.

18 USC 3 -- Accessory After The Fact -- "Whoever, knowing that an offense against the United States has been committed, receives, relieves, comforts or assists the offender in order to hinder or prevent his apprehension, trial or punishment, is an accessory after the fact."

Gives the "null & void project" outline, describes the smash-mouth politics of the "Unity America" citizen action plan, and discusses some standalone Constitutional amendments that we need to get passed.
Bush is not a president. He was not elected in accord with the Constitution. He is a presidential usurper whose usurpation violates the rights of all Americans to have a president elected in accord with the Constitution. His usurpation is the product of a wide felony conspiracy, defined in and violating 18 USC 241. By constitutional principle, his "presidency" was null and void from inception, regardless of when any judge finds the usurpation to be legal fact.
Every Bush action taken under color of law since 20 January 2001 is null and void -- and is an anti-law regime that has generated new felonies every time the individual anti-law regime has been applied. If we apply ourselves, it will take a decade or longer to unravel the web of treasonous felonies.
Nothing new under the sun. In the 60s BCE, Pompey ripped the anti-republican constitution and laws of the usurper-dictator Sulla out of Rome's legal fabric, returning Rome to the great republic that it had been for nearly 400 years.

Unorganized, we the sovereign people are nothing. Organized regionally and nationally in citizen action groups outside the political parties, the NGOs, the anti-war protests, and the flash mobs, we are all-powerful. We can operate citizen action plans such as "Unity America", adding a "jury nullification" project that will overturn the elitist judges' anti-Constitutional intentions.
Saul Alinski, hugely successful organizer of the left, 1940s to 1970s, taught his crews to "never do anything for anyone who can do it themselves--never", to "see the world as it is", to "fix on the world that you wnat to have", and to organize. We need to relearn those Alinski rules.

We should not trust a national Article 5 constitutional convention, no matter who calls it. Article 5 gives Congress an ace in the hole: the choice of ratifying any amendment in either the state legislatures or the special ratifying conventions.
Recent generations of predator elitists have been actively working toward superrich ownership of the state legislatures. "Soft money", with no limit and no accounting, floods perqs and the reelection campaigns at the state level. Ownership of the state legislatures by the superrich is obvious.
Hamilton's Article 5 is a trap. In this political culture of lying, where bribery money is SCOTUS-sanctified free speech, it will be a simple matter for the superrich to find sufficient sycophants among the convention's elected delegates. With the fawning parasites of the superrich crafting the convention's proposed provisions, and the superrich-owned state legislators voting ratification of the convention's proposals, citizen rights will be further limited and opportunities for predator greed greatly expanded.
I've shifted from advocating a 2nd NCC (national constitutional convention) based on Article 5 to advocating standalone constitutional amendments campaigned individually.
We can count on our amendments being willingly done by the politicians in Congress after they've gained THE FEAR from the continually escallating, smash-mouth politics of the "Unity America" citizen action plan -- or anything similar.

Another Motive For
Corporate Globalization

Two looks at a nasty surprise coming for Americans. In a parallel to Katrina's mauling of New Orleans, the natural disaster surprises have been secreted away from us by American govt.
Two active supervolcanoes in the western US -- the largest at Yellowstone, the other at Long Valley, just SE of Yosemite Nat'l Park in California -- are past-due on their supereruption cycles. In keeping with Bush junk science and fascism, data is being intentionally fragmented and/or hidden. The public is not being given anywhere near the complete picture for either of those natural monsters.
Geologic history shows that a minimal explosive supereruption is hundreds or thousands of times greater than St. Helens in 1980. Either of the supervolcanoes is capable of such a supereruption. The immediate kill-zone would be a radius of about 600 miles. Unprepared, tens of millions will die, just in the 600-mile radius. The western US will be largely destroyed. The midwest breadbasket will be largely buried in volcanic glass. Global volcanic winter will last 5 to 10 years, killing much of the biosphere. The event will seriously alter economics and politics around the world.
In apparent preparation, many US corporations have moved their production facilities offshore. In apparent preparation, the collusion of corporate fascism and US govt fascism is quietly birthing -- behind the busy political fictions that misdirect the American people -- the North American Union and its dollar-dumping Amero.

Lays out the growth of American fascism, from Rockefeller's Standard Oil, to the Gilded Age butcheries of ordinary people, to the German war-machine rebuild in the Interwar Period, to participation in and war profiteering from the Nazi slave-labor camps, to Nixon Era corporate laissez faire, to Reagan Era super laissez fair and voodoo economics, to Bush Era nation-crushing laissez faire and super-voodoo economics.
Compilation of twenty-six categories of Bush-Cheney fascist practices:
"No waffling. As with German and Italian fascism in the early 20th Century, the Bush-Cheney Usurpation is pure fascism. It demonstrates a strong-man leader, extreme secrecy, controlled media, fraudulent elections, judicial rulings clearly violating the Constitution, negation of the rule of law by all three branches of government, obstruction of justice for political and corporate leaders, the making of ex post facto law to immunize political and corporate leaders from past crimes, redefinition of established law for corruption and ideological purposes, redefinition of commonly understood language terms to avoid legal retribution (e.g., 'torture' to mean only treatment resulting in severe organ damage or death, and 'terrorist surveillance' to mean the interception of any communication or bank activity done by US citizens), the making of unconstitutional law to limit rights, suppression of Constitutional rights for profits and power, misuse of policy and law for unstated intentions, cronyism and corruption, sham national security obsessions, warmaking for profits and power, supremacy of the military, sham nationalism for the masses while leadership creates policy to benefit the transnational and stateless superrich, hard science made politically relative, anti-intellectualism outside the political and corporate elites, suppression of critical thinking in public education, intermixing of government and religion, enemies and scapegoats obsessions, destruction of undesirable minority population and cultural centers (e.g., Warsaw ghetto and New Orleans), male chauvinism and suppression of women's rights, and corporation protection extremes including lassez faire economic policy and suppression of labor's rights and power."
The essay briefly describes how we can get back our lost constitutional republic.

For over a hundred years, govts in the I&R states have unconstitutionally and arbitrarily delayed, altered, and/or rejected citizen-proposed law offensive to money-power. This gauntlet, to which every citizen-proposed I&R petition is subjected, is based on unconstitutional anti-law regimes passed by the legislatures and signed by the Governors as if they were proper statute law. The anti-law regimes include "separation of powers" unconstitutionalities, in which executive branch officials perform legislative branch functions, and the horrendously unconstitutional "binding judicial review of proposed law". No American constitution defines the judicial power to include binding review of proposed law. Judges would be quickly impeached and removed if they tried it on legislature-proposed law. For over a hundred years, the leadership of both major political parties have perpetrated state and federal felonies against every I&R petition processed by state govt. After the criminalities come the bad press for all citizen lawmaking. First the corruptions, then the lies. The clean-up is do-able.
Our constitutional renewals need to eliminate political parties from all govt matters at both national and state levels, following Nebraska's 1934 still-successful nonpartisan unicameral legislature. Nonpartisan rep govt, with fully independent citizen lawmaking, buttressed by online citizen institutions, is the species-mature governance that will auto-center on the social norms underpinning our Constitution -- political equality, rights, and the rule of law.

It's our best comparison-contrast of truth and the American situation. I hope the author will continue to develop and edit it over what little time we have remaining for dissent.

Remedies Essays

"Judicial Independence: Zero Accountability" -- Neitzke, 16 August 2006. Judicial independence was originally intended to keep the elites safe from commoners, not to keep judges safe from politicians. The zero accountability of judges led to SCOTUS crushing social justice in the Gilded Age, again in the 1920s and 1930s, and again in today's Bush-Cheney Usurpation. We need to end their aiding the predator elites with impunity. Bush v. Gore, 12 Dec 2000, was an unconstitutional, felonious, and treasonous SCOTUS ruling that aided only the predator elites. We need to make the federal bench accountable to the sovereign people -- with nonpartisan elections and the recall by citizens in each Court's jurisdiction. Note -- This post marks my personal change from advocating a 2nd Nat'l Constitutional Convention to advocating standalone Constitutional amendments for our renewal.

"Extraordinary Rights Of Americans" -- Neitzke, DD Revival, 24 May 2006. (Argues that fundamental human and political rights are humanly absolute, not politically relativistic, and that once established, such rights live forever. Further, that the "extraordinary rights of Americans", as distinct from the "traditional rights of Englishmen", were given to us in the Declaration of Independence, hallowed on the Revolution's battlefieds, and betrayed by the predator elitists who authored the Constitution.)

"Direct Democracy Rights" -- Neitzke, DD Revival, 19 June 2006. (Argues that the January 1863 Emancipation and its murderous KKK aftermath is one of the great historical justifications for why the Constitution should have had DD/rep-govt from its beginnings -- and for why we should create it now.)

"Forward, Direct Democracy, 2.0" -- Neitzke, DD Revival, 27 June 2006. Last updated 27 September 2006. (Basic facts and developmental history concerning DD. Comparisons of the founding principles and implied promises of the Declaration of Independence with the realities of the pure rep govt political dynamic from the Constitution -- which buries the DOI's implied promises out of reach of the ordinary people, for the benefit of predator elitist profits and power. The sidebar essay below, "Executive Summary of Direct Democracy, 2.0", appears in this post so that readers can make comments on the sidebar text, if they wish.)

"The Machinery of Democracy: Protecting Elections in an Electronic World" -- Brennan Center for Justice, NYU School of Law, 27 June 2006. (Report based on year-long study concludes "that all three of the nationâs most commonly purchased electronic voting systems are vulnerable to software attacks that could threaten the integrity of a state or national election".)

"Group identifies new flaws in Diebold e-voting machines", The Raw Story, 31 July 2006. (Article, Diebold Hack-O-Matic II. Describes newly-discovered toggle switch inside the latest, no-paper-trail Diebold TS machines. Allows the hacker-operator to load different operating systems from different sources. The OS in the machine's EPROM is the certified software that can pass any test. Toggle the switch to load an uncertified and easily-hacked OS from FLASH. Will produce whatever vote count the hacker wants. Diebold has retro-fitted most of these machines with modems, so that the hacker can work by telephone. Switching back to the EPROM leaves no trace of what happened, but it does leave the hacked-in votes.
